Frito Corn Salad

Today is National Corn Chip Day, so here I am with a recipe featuring corn chips!

This is an excellent side dish.  I served it alongside taco salads, so it was great as a side OR a salad topping - so delish!

The salad is a mayonnaise-based corn salad with a few other veggies and great spices…then just before serving, chili cheese frito corn chips are added to add crunch and even more flavor!  It’s a crowd pleaser for sure.
